Recommendation
We recommend that the Trieste model of care is implemented for autistic people and people with learning disabilities by the Department of Health & Social Care and NHS England & Improvement. All new long-term admissions of such people to institutions should be banned except for forensic cases. For cases where there is a severe co- morbidity any admission longer than three months should be subject to the safeguard as set out in the next paragraph.
